THE HOST
Michael Rivero is the host of the What Really Happened radio shows on the Republic Broadcasting Network and webmaster of whatreallyhappened.com, now in its 22nd year. Both the radio show and website enjoy a large and growing global audience. He is a frequent guest on talk-radio and has appeared in television programs such as History Channel’s “America’s Book of Secrets.”
Michael Rivero’s background is as eclectic as his radio show and website. Formerly with NASA, Michael transitioned his image processing skills (along with a brief stint as a child actor) into the then-new computer animation field, starting with award winning commercials, then working on films such as “Star Trek”, “The Day After Tomorrow”, and later supervising visual effects on “Brainscan”, “LOST”, and “Hawaii Five-0”. Michael Rivero has taken a sabbatical from film work to focus all his efforts on peace activism.
Michael Rivero’s foray into blogging began before the word was even invented, and happened almost by accident when he spotted a suspicious photograph being broadcast on ABC news in 1994 related to the murder of White House Deputy Counsel Vincent Foster.Since that abrupt beginning, What Really Happened, both website and radio show, has expanded to cover diverse topics including the assassinations, the accidental shoot-down of TWA 800, election fraud, health issues, Saddam’s non-existent nuclear weapons, 9-11, the economy, and the ongoing propaganda used to trick the American people into wars of conquest in Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen, Libya, and other nations.
Michael Rivero currently resides in Hawaii with his wife Claire, who is a composer, choir conductor, and creates much of theme music used on the What Really Happened radio show, as well as occasionally participating as a commentator.

The Associated Press joins the ranks of stopping the real news which
they call fake news. Facebook will be using these fact check networks
that are bought and paid for by the US Government and CIA. Russia and
Putin want the US to prove that they cyber attacked the election system.
Obama is taking the Russian hacking to the next level, he is preparing
to cyber attack Russia. The Washington Post is reporting that the FBI
and the DNI have now flipped and they agree with the CIA. Libya is
throwing out the UN Backed government they are preparing a new road
map.The truce is off in Aleppo because the moderate rebels (terrorists)
broke the truce. The Council For Foreign Relations sees a war coming.

More proof that gold is completely manipulated. The traders even picked
amount where they will not allow gold to go above. Housing starts,
permits collapse. Nowcast is now predicting that GDP will drop to 1.7%
for the 4th Quarter. The Dow is overbought, we haven't seen this since
the tech bubble and 2008, hold on to your seat because it is going to be
a fast ride down. The Quad Witch has arrived, we will start to see
major volatility in the market most likely starting in 2017. Doug Casey
warns to sell your bonds now. China and other foreign central banks
start to dump US Treasuries, do they know something we don't.

Chinese investors are one step closer to buying the Chicago Stock
Exchange after they cleared a key regulatory hurdle. Ameera David has
the details. Then, Bianca Facchinei takes a look at the continuing Wells
Fargo fraud fallout, with new account creation declining. After,
Lindsay France examines austerity measures across the world, including
Brazil, where protesters are once again taking to the streets.

Following
the break, Peter Schiff, CEO of Euro Pacific Capital, gives his outlook
on gold and broader markets. And finally, in The Big Deal, Edward
Harrison breaks down Trump’s proposed economic team and their focus on
supply-side economics.

It has been revealed the underwater drone was taken by a Chinese warship
The unmanned US vehicle was located in the South China Sea on December 15
Reports claim the Chinese snatched the drone right in front of the US vessel
United States has demanded the vessel be returned from China immediately
It comes after Donald Trump created potential chaos in US/China relations
President-elect had a phone call with Taiwan's leader Tsai Ing-wen this month
The move by Trump is said to have seriously angered Chinese officials
Beijing carried out its first ever live-fire drills in the South China Sea this week
'They stole it': Chinese warship seizes underwater US Navy drone which was operating in the South China Sea as Beijing conducted huge live-fire exercise in contested waters
This is a huge international incident, it happened yesterday. So I believe the Navy has leaked this out to the media in order to get a foothold in this International chaotic mess but who really knows what is really going on...

meme that has been recently unleashed to discredit the work of
alternative news media journalists and investigative researchers. The

DHS Caught Hacking Georgia Secretary of State Office During the Election (NOT RUSSIA)

The insanely corrupt DHS has ties of it hacking the Georgian Secretary
of States office during the election. With all of the anti-Russia
propaganda going around GLOBALLY, here is evidence that the DHS was
involved in attacking our own government.

The housing crash was caused by the real estate bubble. The abnormal rise is what created the abnormal fall. It's a balancing act, and so the only way it can fall is by rising too fast. It's like the only way a jack-in-the-box can spring out of the box is by coiling the spring. The only way the housing market can crash is by rising exponentially/abnormally, which coils the spring. This was done by the middle class, who went into a house-buying frenzy, bidding every house up by 5-10%. They figured the housing market was rising that fast anyway, so why not jump on the bandwagon. Everybody was doing it, so everybody wanted to get in on it. People were making more money in real estate than any other type of investment, so a lot of them pulled all their money out of other investments and poured it into buying second and third houses. People were also borrowing against the equity in their home, and even borrowing against credit cards to buy even more houses. It seemed like a sure-thing because housing prices had never fallen in their lifetimes. It was a buying frenzy that was feeding on itself, because people kept agreeing to mark the values up a little higher each time, which was paid for by the next person marking it up even higher. But the houses weren't really more valuable. The behavior was just following itself, following assumptions of value created by its own momentum. There is only one way to stop that kind of behavioral spiral from happening, and that is by taxing it. When the housing prices formed an exponential rise on the graph (a curve shaped like a bicycle ramp), that was the signal that buying was out of control and had gone into a frenzy. A 1% transaction tax on any real estate that is marked up would have taken some of the fun out of marking it up. Or it could be a 20% tax on the markup above the tax assessment.value. It's like "Oh, you have an extra 10% cash to bid the house up that much higher than the market, and 20% above the assessment? How about sharing 20% of the difference with the government since you have so much extra money lying around." Since overbidding a house is a useless luxury anyway, that only leads to problems down the road, we might as well tax it whenever it gets out of hand. That would have taken the fun out of marking up the prices in a bidding-frenzy, and people would have calmed back down and gone back to their normal routine of just buying a house to live in.﻿

Venezuela is reeling from the highest inflation rate in the world, at around 500 percent.
Some economists believe this will triple next year.

Could the next financial crisis be just around the corner? The signs of a
looming meltdown are ‘unmistakable,’ this according to best-selling
author Jim Rickards. Giving his 2017 outlook to Kitco News, he said the
next crisis would be far worse than any previous one markets have
experienced. ‘It could be a few years from now [but] it’s unlikely we’ll
get 5 years; it’s been 8 years since the last one,’ he told Daniela
Cambone. On gold, Rickards was a little less optimistic over the shorter
term, calling for continued strength in the U.S. dollar to weigh on the
metal. As for the Fed -- his not-so favorite topic – Rickards warned
investors to ignore the noise. In his view, the central bank is just
sounding a lot more hawkish than it will actually be in 2017.

“The modern banking system manufactures money out of nothing. The process is, perhaps, the most astounding piece of sleight of hand that was ever invented. Banks can in fact inflate, mint and un-mint the modern ledger-entry currency.” Major L L B Angus

The few who understand the system will either be so interested in its profits or so dependent on its favours that there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of the people mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantage that capital derives from the system will bear its burdens without complaint and perhaps without even suspecting that the system is inimical to their interests.The Rothschild Bros

"Debts must be collected, bonds and mortgages must be foreclosed as rapidly as possible. When, through a process of law, the common people lose their homes they will become more docile and more easily governed through the influence of the strong arm of government, applied by a central power of wealth under control of leading financiers.

This truth is well known among our principal men now engaged in forming an imperialism of Capital to govern the world.

By dividing the voters through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energies in fighting over questions of no importance. Thus by discreet action we can secure for ourselves what has been so well planned and so successfully accomplished."
